Can Lori Loughlin make a career comeback after serving prison sentence? Experts weigh in

Andrew Gilman, president & CEO of CommCore Consulting Group, weighed in on Loughlin's sentencing and if her acting career is salvageable after she serves.

If she accepts the punishment, pays the fine, and puts in the hours of community service, she will have paid the price to the court of law, he told Fox News. In the court of public opinion, restoring her reputation and getting hired again will depend on time, her sincerity and [if] producers and audiences [are] willing to forgive and forget. He questioned if values-based networks like Hallmark might be slower to accept her being cast.

Eden Gillott, president of Gillott Communications, told Fox News that "a reputation isn't like a computer on the fritz. You can't just flip a switch and restore a career as if nothing happened. She’s going to need a hard reset."
In order for Loughlin to return to Hollywood, it's "going to require laying low and being as un-newsworthy as possible while she redefines what's important to her and her family."

Howard Breuer, CEO of a Los Angeles-based PR firm Newsroom PR, called Loughlin's sentencing amid a pandemic "serendipitous" because very few TV and movies have returned to production. So, by the time any projects were to resume, Loughlin will be out of prison. "Think about all that we are going through now and what the next year will be like. Will anyone care?" he wondered.

Irwin Feinberg, a founding partner at the FMBK law firm, disagreed to a point. He reasoned that Loughlin "played by a whole different set of rules. Rules that didn't apply to the 'little people.'"

"In essence, she used those rules to buy her daughters' admissions into the schools that she wanted for them. If she's going to seek redemption in the public's eye, she going to have to find a level of humility," he added. "[Loughlin] needs to establish that's she's contrite... and is determined not to repeat those mistakes."

That’s the problem though. Of all the parts LL can play, she can’t bring herself to play the part of “contrite”.

A very strange story is actually happening. I'm in college now reading this news and I'm just terrified of what might happen. I recently bought college research papers for sale at the company papersowl.com/research-papers-for-sale. I plan to continue writing my research, despite similar news or other obstacles.

Thanks for the info.

Former exam administrator pleads guilty in college scam

Niki Williams, 46, a former employee of the Houston Independent School District, pleaded guilty Friday to taking bribes to help wealthy parents rig their kids’ test scores.

Williams, who administered the college entrance exams at the public high school where she worked, took money from Singer in exchange for allowing someone else to take exams in place of the children of Singer’s clients or correct their answers.

Williams is scheduled to be sentenced Dec. 21.

 

[scdiv]

I predict Niki Williams will get the lower end of sentencing.

 

[JerseyGirl]

I predict Niki Williams will get the lower end of sentencing.

yes. Government’s recommendation:

Sentence at the low end of the sentencing guidelines
1 year of supervised release
Fine
Forfeiture of $20,000
Restitution

Investigations of College Admissions and Testing Bribery Scheme

 

[JudgeJoe]

I predict Niki Williams will get the lower end of sentencing.

And will likely never teach anywhere again. Test tampering is grounds for loss of teaching certification. Too lazy to find link tonight so... moo.

I just don't understand why people would jeopardize their professional careers for a couple of extra bucks. Especially in the case of this woman. I doubt she was paid $100,000 for each test she "fixed".

They can also charge her with federal tax evasion, if she did not declare her "earnings".

Fraud. Bad news.

@scdiv Thx for your post.

So wealthy parents of 'academically challenged' kids will pay photographers to take pix of their dau's in actual bikinis in bogus poses on simulated skateboards?

Just askin'

I think LL summed things up best when she (finally) said, “'I thought I was acting out of love for my children, but in reality, I had only undermined and diminished my daughters' abilities and accomplishments”.

The girls are talented. OJ’s ability to create scenarios of interest (like bikini skateboarding), wear just the right thing (color-coordinated tennies, socks & swimsuit) and maximize SEO hits all over social media is a lucrative skill & talent. Top companies pay big money for this skill set. Many colleges have special degree programs to teach what she already masters. They could have totally “sold” that to a number of prestigious colleges for admission & full ride. Why they didn’t use that & instead fabricated the whole rowing fiasco is really dumb. And uncreative. Which is odd since they all make a living from creative career fields. Moo

You’re right! I stand corrected!

Olivia is not attending college. And learning how to skateboard while wearing a bikini is evidence that she probably isn't smart enough to ever attend a university.

Not even a modicum of modesty, especially for a child of a goody two shoes “Hallmark” actress .... I should say “former”.
Before ya know it she’ll be posing for Playboy or worse. I guess I’m too old fashioned.

College Admissions Scandal Dad Sentenced to Homestay

A former tech executive was sentenced Monday to one year of home confinement for paying $300,000 to bribe his son's way into Georgetown University as a tennis recruit, even though the son did not play tennis.

Peter Dameris, of Pacific Palisades, California, appeared before a Boston federal court judge via video because of the coronavirus pandemic. He pleaded guilty in June to one count of conspiracy to commit mail fraud and honest services mail fraud.

His sentence also included a $95,000 fine and three years of supervised release.

Prosecutors had recommended a sentence of 21 months of home confinement along with a fine of $95,000. Dameris' lawyers asked for probation only, saying he deserved leniency to help care for a son who has leukemia.

A U.S. District Judge said he took the medical considerations into account in the sentence, along with an "outpouring" of support from friends and family members who submitted letters to the court.

Dameris acknowledged that he later considered the scheme for his other son but did not follow through with it. Neither son was involved, and his son at Georgetown was allowed to stay and graduate.

Probably that is her next step. California is a different place.

Right. I always thought Steven King should have used Hollywood as the setting for the bad place in his book The Stand, instead he used Las Vegas. Well they’re both bad, but....

Fraud. Bad news.

True story and opinion only:

So a Corrections officer I know was asked by an inmate if he would pick up drugs from outside sources and bring them into the prison for X amount of money like a few thousand $'s for each time....

So the officer countered and said he'd do it for maybe a couple million $'s. The inmate was taken aback, he's like "why do you want that much are you kidding?"

So the officer goes "I don't kid around about supporting my family. If I smuggle in drugs and get caught I will loose my job, lose my retirement which also includes health insurance, my wife and kids will lose everything also, no one will want to hire me plus I could end up in prison myself. Oh, and we would end up on the street without my income. So, I would have to have at least a couple million to help make up for all that, which by the way wouldn't even be enough."

The inmate said "ok, I see what you mean."

The point I'm trying to make here is that alot of people are short-sited. They look at scoring, wow, an X amount of money quickly! An amount that seems like alot to them and all their dreams will come true and tax free.

Look at all they could do with that money, they have bills, they want to go to Disney World, they want to put a down payment on a boat or pay cash for that fancy car or pay off their over extended credit cards....

So....

They take the bait and do something illegal for the quick buck. Then when they are arrested that X amount of money ends up going to their attorney and restitution and they lose their jobs in many cases and lose other financial opportunities....Some end up in prison and lose it all.

Then they see how short-sited they were. And now, how broke they are.
All for the quick money scheme without seeing the long game. I recommend playing the long game.
